Help! I have a bit if a dilemma. Thanks to the wet weather these last 2 weeks and the fact that my dad is out of action with an eye injury, my paving hasn't been completed. All that really needs doing is the edges and the pavers in my steps need to be cemented in. I'd attempt to do it myself but th...

Thanks everyone. Thankfully it stopped raining everytime we had to load and unload so been pretty lucky. Managed to get it shifted in two loads. Now we have the fun of unpacking and finding everything we chucked in boxes... Only problem has been the shelves above the fridge... they installed 10mm to...

Managed to get a few boxes shifted last night to get a head start on today. Dumped them in the theatre. Head to shift a heap of pavers too which the builder left on the driveway. Plus they left one stack in the garage so we have plenty of pavers to do something with! My mate who was helping us last ...

Almost forgot to open our goody bag... no champers but some stuff for the kitchen which is nice :) Love the paella pan and rice! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170811/84752ecf8d4dcd37e58c05f7fe01d789.jpg

Congrats! Place is looking great. Think your builder had better cleaners than mine :D

And we have keys! https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170811/8362234faad87e044220beb44f533274.jpg

i just rang the guy - didn't bother with their online service. Yes, it did include installation. When i thought about how much the materials would cost to do it myself and then the time taken to do it, $450 for someone else to do it was very attractive. I think it only took at most an hour for him ...

Got my gate through Hari Fencing $450 1.5m wide colorbond. He did it day after i accepted quote. Don't have his number on hand atm tho. Thanks Rosemi I've used their online request a quote service twice now but not heard back. I'll try calling them. Your quote included installation from memory righ...

We went through Stratco.. Just walked into a store and ordered. XDDD I don't know if they have them over there though. My side gate is $1,400... but its pretty fancy, I found out last weekend I could have had the same look for half the price with a similar product... but the guy messed me up. :( Oh...

Good luck today Dawn!

Hi Bob, we had a side gate installed the other day, the guy was fantastic & really reasonably priced. If you're looking for more quotes his name is Justin 0478 543 748. I didn't even meet him, he was recommended by our neighbor & has done our whole estate, he just had a look, called me with...

So exciting Bob! How'd you go with the gate quotes? What sort of gate are you getting? We want a Colorbond slat gate and I've just been looking online to find a couple places to contact for quotes as want to get that installed ASAP to secure the back garden and avoid our HWS getting stolen!

Made a nervous call to the builder today to make sure Friday was still a go....he said all is looking good...Im terrified something is gonna go wrong at the last minute.. Cant believe this is finally happening. Haha I'm starting to get the same terrified yet excited feeling

Yayyyy. Well get keys together:) Haha funny how that worked out! Glad you are finally getting your keys too!

Hi Silentbob, I've been watching your thread the last few weeks. I'm so sorry you've encountered some horrible things. But.. so happy for you both to be receiving the keys this week. So exciting for you both! Thanks! Other than some kids breaking the windows last week thankfully it's been a pretty ...
